7-29-17 Spaghetti with shrimp and asparagus

-->

Tonight’s dinner is the result of our visit to the Farmer’s
Market this morning where we bought a bottle of dill infused olive oil from the
Paducah Olive oil store. I knew immediately what I would do with our new
purchase. For a number of reasons, our crop of fresh herbs this year is short
on dill, and I wanted to see if this olive oil would make up for that.

INGREDIENTS:

1.Spaghetti

2.Shrimp

3.Asparagus

4.Olive oil – plain – for cooking

5.Olive oil w Dill

6.Leeks

7.Celery

8.Garlic

9.Fresh lemon juice

10.Fresh
basil

11.White
wine

12.Butter

PROCESS:

While the pasta is cooking prepare the sauce – cook the
ingredients in any order you wish. (It’s late and I’m too tired to write
everything out tonight.)Mix in
the pasta with some of the pasta water, and drizzle with the Dill infused olive
oil before serving.

COMMENTS:

The new olive oil came through and imparted a dill flavor to
the dish, which was quite delicious.
